Memorial Day
I hope everyone has nice and safe Memorial Day and don't forget the meaning of this day. Did anybody watch the race "I mean demo derby" last night? After all the wrecks and 600 miles Jimmy Johnson has to win the race, I sure was rooting B Labonte to win that race. Dale Jr and Brian Vickers sure didn't make any friends out there last night with there actions last night, I just don't know what either of them were thinking. I left the beach early this morning, I wanted to beat the traffic and had a few things aroun here to do. Al, Me Ma Ruth said that you were extremely upset that I said you may have one of her lawn mowers, she said that you don't like being accused of things that you haven't done and you were very upset about it.

Colonials Season Comes To An End
The CH Colonials season came to an end wednesday night with a 13-o loss to the Prince George Royals. The Colonials finished the season 12-9 and overall it was a pretty good season. We had some good victories and streaks where we played very well but we had some games were we just got blown. It seemed like when we were playing well we would win by a large margin and we weren't playing well would would lose by the same margin. Hopefully dad will decide to come back for another season because I think we will be better next season. Well CH schools will be out after today for Memorial Day and the weather looks like it will be pretty good for a change this weekend, I hope everbody has a good Memorial Day. MICKEY

Looks Like A Nice Day In The Heights
It looks like it is going to be a nice day here in CH, the sun is out and the temp is suppose to get to around 80. I watched the all-star race last night and the old man Mark Martin won it after half the the field was taken out in a wreck. There was allot of fingerpointing going on after the wreck, but it did look like Stewart got into Nemecheck and he the got into Harvick triggering the big one. E Sadler came in second and I wish he would have won the thing since he is from VA. Don't forget the CH Colonials play in the central district tournament tuesday at 5pm against the PG Royals at the Petersbur Sports Complex. There was another fire yesterday in CH on Wellington Rd, the fire was contained to the bedroom. MICKEY

It was a bad day for both CH Colonails and the TD knights tuesday with the Colonials losing 8-2 to Prince George and TD losing 13-0 to Hopewell, hopefully thursday will be better for both teams, I haven't heard anything about how the JV Colonials did.

Royals Pound Colonials 8-2
I don't there is nothing positive to say about this game. We just didn't show up for the biggest game of the year so far. PG hit 3 HR's and there pitchers kept CH off balance most of the afternoon. When the Colonials had there scoring chances we were just unable to get the job done. The only thing I can say is we just have to put this game behind us and get ready for Dinwiddie thursday night, hopefully we will show for that one. MICKEY

Rainy Morning In Va And Nc
I has been a very rainy morning here in CH and it appears to have been the same in KDH. I was looking at some rain gauges on the internet and here in CH and KDH it looks like there was about 0.75 inches of rain in both places since midnight. It looks like the rain is about over here in CH now as the son is just starting to come thru the clouds a bit, however at the beach it still looks cloudy. I think I am going to watch the race today and keep up with the Reds and Braves during the commercial breaks. I am going out to lunch with Me Ma Ruth first though. MICKEY
